The Mommy Test

This was just forwarded to me by a buddy of mine. Thanks Alan!

The Mommy Test

I was out walking with my four-year-old daughter. She picked up something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I took the item away from her and I asked her not to do that.
"Why?" my daughter asked.
"Because it's been on the ground, you don't know where it's been, it's dirty and probably has germs" I replied.

At this point, my daughter looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Mommy, how do you know all this stuff?"
"Uh," I was thinking quickly. "All moms know this stuff. It's on the Mommy Test. You have to know it, or they don't let you be a Mommy."
We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information. "OH...I get it!" she beamed, "So if you don't pass the test you have to be the daddy."

"Exactly" I replied back with a big smile on my face.

That test is way hard too. But if you fail it you don't hafta pay child support.

Kevin, what are you doing contacting me on my blog? What would Britney think? She's already mad enough at me as it is because I won't give her dancing lessons. Seriously, you need to be more discreet in our online meetings.
